This casserole was just okay. The squash was a bit too sweet for my taste and the bacon was a bit too greasy. The cheese was also a bit too overpowering. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less squash and more bacon.

This casserole was a disappointment. The squash was bland and watery and the bacon was tough and chewy. The cheese was also rubbery and flavorless. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this casserole again

This casserole was a bit too bland for my taste. The squash was not very flavorful, and the bacon was not crispy enough. I think I would have liked it better if I had used more spices and herbs.

This casserole was a bit too rich for my taste. The squash was very creamy and the cheese was very heavy. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less cheese and more vegetables.
